Unfortunately the number of people studying psychology has increased dramatically:
“Psychology is one of the most popular subjects to study at degree level: over 24,000 students were accepted onto UK undergraduate courses alone in 2019, accounting for one in 20 students 1 .”
(I presume they are psychology students – poor grammar!)

“The total number of registered psychologists increased by almost a quarter (24%) in the six years to April 2020, to 24,621.”
I did a year’s ‘social psychology’ due to there not being enough animal-free medical science subjects at the Open University, and was very sceptical about a lot of it.
My niece has just qualified with a psychology Masters degree.
It seems to be cropping up everywhere on the TV, radio and news websites.
